The Hänchen intensifier is a fluid power device that will produce an output pressure higher than the source input pressure. The input fluid may be the same as, or different than, the output fluid.
A hydraulic pressure intensifier can be used for many applications, for example, rupture tests on hoses up to 5,000 bar, pipes and containers, for high-pressure metal forming (IHU/AHU), for closing and tensioning of molds and tools, for presses, for proportioning precisely defined volumes and much more. Hydraulic pressure intensifiers can also be used as media converters for the separation of two different media.
